15. I think that you are agreeing with the OP essentially |

and I agree with you both. I grew up in the land of segregated schools, toilets, water fountains, etc. To think that we've evolved as a country enough to elect the best man for the job despite his skin color is truly amazing.
In 8 years I hope that we can do the same thing for a woman. Not just any woman but the BEST woman for the job. How old will Barbara Boxer be then??

6. Hey, he's half white too... |
|
Give us something for us white folks to celebrate, ok...
Seriously I don't care what color the guy is.
But it's big for black folks, I understand that.

12. He's black, he's white, he's been poor, he's been rich, he's America. |
|
He is the best of all of us. I'm so happy for him and for this nation, so proud for him and of him. He's got a tough job ahead of him but together we can pull out of this. Yes we can.
